In one game, the players and the play stunk. And naturally, there is nowayinhell that the officials are gonna look good. Nuh-huh....ain't gonna happen. In the second game, the players are skilled and well coached, and that makes your job just soooooo much easier.
Tanner had the right idea. Carry visions of post-game sugarplums and brownpop in your head and just git-r-done.

Well said. We actually talked about that in the locker room. We had a team that could play and one that couldn't. Nobody is going to make that look good. Unfortunately it was a week night and we had a long drive so there were no post-game beverages. One of my partners is in law enforcement so we never have any in the car, not that officials would ever have an open container in their vehicle on the way home.
